Mario Sunshine commercial

The hype surrounding Mario Sunshine is a bit over-the-top. I got some mail from Nintendo today that plugged Sunshine in a REALLY dippy way while trying to mention the new bundle they've put together.
But don't let it discourage you, it promises to be an excellent game.

It looks awsome, I'm gettin the pack. And I can't wait to see the commercial, hasn't aired here yet...

The commercial is aweful.

But besides that the game looks awesome. I'll definately be getting it come the end of August.

WTF???? the commercial is so gay...if i didnt know that the game kicksass arleady id be totally turned off. at first i thought it was gonna be cutsey-badass like the commercial for smash 1. but nope.....just gay...

Commercial=stupid
My girlfriend is getting SMS for her gamecube so maybe I should tell her dont pay attention to the commercials

I'm buying a GC just for SMS ( and Zelda, and Metroid, and a few more).

I haven't seen the commercial yet, but it won't discourage me anyway.

I know man. I mean, the Smash Bros commercial had people in big suits dressed like the Nintendo characters, romping in a field. That one was funny cause they started to kick the crap outta each other. But this Mario Sunshine one is just retarded.

I definitly think this is not a good way for Nintendo to promote it's biggest franchise. Nintendo should stick with those commercials with stuff inside big glass cubes, those are cooler.

It seemed pretty gay the first couple times I saw it, but the more I watch it (I downloaded it off the internet) the more it seems like a parody of those dreadful commercials for Barbie dolls and such. To begin with, the last shot (of the Gamecube with the waterfall in the background) is a perfect imitation of little children's action figure commercials. There's other things, like when the people are coming over the hill, there's a guy on a golf cart or something on the right, and what appears to be a couple of construction workers holding hands at the left.

*Shrug* Or maybe NOA's advertising agency just ballsed up big time. But that's certainly no reason not to get the game.

For people who haven't seen it yet, you can watch it here.

"Clean is better than dirty and dirty is meaner than clean!"

Its more like a "Mario saves the environment" game :lol: :lol: :lol:

Edit: Teddy..You are thinking the way I am..I would get a GCN even if only for Metroid

omfg

that is so freakin dumb... Vegeta is right, stick to the 'cube' commercials

Kid's game.

<Suboptimus_Prime> Jackie Chan must die, have you seen his new movie?
*** Kevyn has quit IRC (Ping timeout)

I think it was that dumb voice that was saying "Clean Mario, clean!" more than anything. I just know they could've done better.

Hey, remember the Mario Kart commercials? :lol: those were awesome

Almost as funny as those old DBZ Action figure commercials... "Life-Like fighting action!" (Shows two figurers being hit together by some kid)

That commercial seems to ba a parody...

Although ads are often cool or really set up to be hype-builders, I don't usually count on the ads to inform me or get me interested in a game. I find other information beforehand, then buy the game. SMS looks awesome and I haven't seen the ad yet, so I won't let it, when I see it, sway me.

The ad is incredibly gay. The Ad and Gay could go to the movies together and Gay could wear an "I'm With Stupid" T-shirt.
